A community needs assessment serves as the starting point to address a community’s needs and advocate for improvements. UWHC partnered with several organizations to conduct a county-wide survey and several community conversations. We took this community wisdom and paired it with secondary research and statistics.

The Community Needs Assessment Summary is included below and will take you through the survey process — what we learned, and how those voices led us to gain priceless knowledge.

We plan to use this information to shape exciting new goals for the future of Horry County. Achieving these goals will require us to come together as a community to utilize this information to invest our resources, focus our funding, and build collective impact.
